He was appointed to the House Appropriations Committee two years after he was elected. <mask> said his philosophy was "moderate in domestic affairs, an internationalist in foreign affairs, and a conservative in fiscal policy." The Civil Rights Acts of 1957, 1960, 1964, and 1968, as well as the 24th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, were all voted in by him. <mask> was known to his colleagues in the House as a "Congressman's Congressman". <mask> did not run for the Senate or the Michigan governorship in the early 1950s.He wanted to become Speaker of the House. To sit up there and be the head of 434 other people and have the responsibility of trying to run the greatest legislative body in the history of mankind.

The members of the Republican caucus that encouraged and eventually endorsed <mask> to run as the House minority leader were later known as the "Young Turks" and one of the members of the Young Turks was congressman Donald H. Rumsfeld from Illinois's 13th congressional district. With a Democratic majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, the Johnson Administration proposed and passed a series of programs.The most successful legislative agenda in Congressional history was signed by Johnson during the first session of the Eighty-ninth Congress. The criticism of the Johnson Administration's handling of the Vietnam War began to grow in 1966, with Ford and Congressional Republicans expressing concern that the United States was not doing what was necessary to win the war. The 1966 midterm elections produced a 47-seat swing in favor of the Republicans, as public sentiment began to move against Johnson. This wasn't enough to give Republicans a majority in the House, but the victory gave Ford the chance to prevent the passage of further Great Society programs. Ford's private criticism of the Vietnam War became public knowledge after he spoke from the floor of the House and questioned whether the White House had a clear plan to bring the war to a successful conclusion. President Johnson accused <mask> of having played too much football without a helmet. Ford proposed Republican alternatives to Johnson's policies in a series of televised press conferences when he was the minority leader in the House.The press jokingly referred to this show as "The Ev and Jerry Show." At the time, Johnson said, "<mask> is so dumb he can't chew gum at the same time." The press reported that <mask> can't walk and chew gum at the same time. <mask> became an advocate for the White House agenda after Richard Nixon was elected president. The National Environmental Policy Act and the Tax Reform Act of 1969 were passed by Congress. The State and Local Fiscal Assistance act was a high-profile victory for the Republican minority. The act established a revenue sharing program.<mask>'s leadership was instrumental in shepherding revenue sharing through Congress, and resulted in a bipartisan coalition that supported the bill with 223 votes in favor. <mask> won friends in the House because of his fair leadership and inoffensive personality during his eight years as minority leader. <mask> worked to help Republicans get a majority in the chamber, often traveling on the rubber chicken

Nixon's chief of staff proposed a pardon deal to Ford, according to Bob Woodward. He decided to pardon Nixon because of their friendship. According to historians, the controversy was one of the main reasons <mask> lost the 1976 presidential election. The New York Times stated that the Nixon pardon was a "profoundly unwise, divisive and unjust act" that had destroyed the new president's "credibility as a man of judgment, candor and competence". <mask> testified before Congress about the pardon. The last sitting president to testify before the House of Representatives was Abraham Lincoln.<mask> referred to Nixon in public as "my predecessor" or "the former president" in the months following the pardon. Fred Barnes, the White House correspondent at the time, recalled that <mask> replied "I just can't bring myself to do it." After <mask> left the White House in January 1977, he privately justified his pardon of Nixon by carrying in his wallet a portion of a 1915 US Supreme Court decision. <mask> received the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for his pardon of Nixon. In presenting the award to Ford, Senator Edward Kennedy said that he had initially been opposed to the pardon, but later decided that history had proven <mask> to have made the correct decision. Military deserters and Vietnam War draft dodgers who fled to Canada after Ford pardoned Nixon will be able to apply for a conditional amnesty program. Those who had served less than two years of honorable service in the military were required to serve two years in a public service job or a total of two years in service.The program for the Return of Vietnam Era Draft Evaders and Military Deserters established a Clemency Board to review the records and make recommendations for receiving a Presidential Pardon and a change in military discharge status. The Carter administration pardoned draft dodgers. <mask> took over Nixon's Cabinet when he took office. He replaced Secretary of State Kissinger and Secretary of the Treasury during his brief administration. Ford's Cabinet reorganization in the fall of 1975 was referred to as the "Halloween Massacre" by political commentators. One of Ford's appointees, William Coleman, was the second black man to serve in a presidential cabinet after Robert C. Weaver and the first appointed in a Republican administration. In 1974 George H. W. Bush was selected by Ford to be the Chief of the US Liaison Office to the People's Republic of China.Donald Rumsfeld was the first Chief of Staff for Ford. Rumsfeld was named the youngest Secretary of Defense in 1975. Ford chose a young Wyoming politician, Richard Cheney, to replace Rumsfeld as his new Chief of Staff; Cheney became the campaign manager for Ford's 1976 presidential campaign. In the wake of the Watergate scandal, the Congressional mid-term elections took place less than three months after Ford took office. The Democratic Party increased their majority in the House of Representatives by taking 49 seats from the Republican Party. The number needed for a two-thirds majority was more than what was needed. The 94th Congress overrode the highest percentage of vetoes since Andrew Johnson was President of the United States.Ford's former, reliably Republican House seat was won by a Democrat. The Democrats became the majority in the Senate with 61 seats. The economy was a concern during the Ford administration. The Executive Order that created the Economic Policy Board was one of the first acts the new president took to deal with the economy. In October 1974, in response to rising inflation, Ford went before the American public and asked them to "Whip Inflation Now". He urged people to wearWIN buttons. There was a belief that controlling inflation would help reduce unemployment and that inflation was the primary threat to the economy.Control of the public's spending was needed to rein in inflation. "WIN" called for Americans to reduce their spending and consumption to try and mesh service and sacrifice. Ford kicked off the "WIN" campaign after giving a speech in front of a joint session of Congress. Over the next nine days, 101,240 Americans made "WIN" pledges. This was viewed as a public relations ploy which didn't solve the underlying problems. The main point of the speech was to increase the income tax on corporations and wealthy individuals. The plan would take $4.4 billion out of the budget.Inflation was over twelve percent at the time. <mask> was president when the federal budget ran a deficit. The Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975, which established special education throughout the United States, was signed by Ford despite his reservations about how the program would be funded in an era of tight public budgeting. According to the official White House press release, Ford expressed "strong support for full educational opportunities for our handicapped children." The country was in the worst recession since the Great Depression when the economic focus began to change. The rise in unemployment was the focus of the Ford administration. In January 1975, Ford proposed a 1-year tax reduction of $16 billion to spur economic growth, along with spending cuts to avoid inflation.Ford switched from advocating a tax increase to a tax reduction. The amount of the tax reduction increased in Congress, but there were no spending cuts. The Tax Reduction Act of 1975 was signed into law by Ford in March 1975. The 1975 fiscal year had a federal deficit of around $53 billion, while the 1976 fiscal year had a federal deficit of $73.7 billion. Mayor Abraham Beame was unsuccessful in getting Ford's support for a federal rescue of New York City. "Ford to City: Drop Dead" was the headline of the New York Daily News after the incident. Ford was confronted with a potential swine flu epidemic.The H1N1 flu that affected pigs in the early 1970s was a different strain from the one that affected humans. On February 5, 1976, an army recruit mysteriously died and four fellow soldiers were hospitalized; health officials announced that "swine flu" was the cause. Public health officials in the Ford administration urged everyone in the United States to bevaccinated. The vaccine program was plagued by delays and public relations problems, but 25% of the population wasvaccinated by the time the program was canceled. Ford was an ardent supporter of the Equal Rights Amendment. Ford supported a federal constitutional amendment that would allow each one of the 50 states to make their own decision on abortion. He was the House Minority Leader at the time of the Supreme Court case of Wade.<mask> gave an interview to 60 Minutes in 1975, in which she stated that the decision to allow abortion was a great one. <mask> identified as pro-choice during his later life. The policy of detente with the Soviet Union and China was continued by Ford. The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty was part of the Nixon administration. The thaw in the relationship was reinforced by Ford's visit to China in December 1975. The framework of the Helsinki Watch, an independent non-governmental organization created to monitor compliance which later evolved into Human Rights Watch, was created by the Administration in 1975. Ford secured Canada's membership in the Group of Seven industrialized nations in 1975, after attending the first meeting.<mask> supported international solutions. He said in a 1974 speech that we must work together to resolve common economic problems. In November 1975, <mask> adopted the global human population control recommendations of National Security Study Memorandum 200 as the United States policy. The plan explicitly states the goal was population control and not improving the lives of individuals despite instructing organizers to emphasize development and improvements in the quality of life of the poor. <mask> stated that United States leadership is essential to combat population growth, to implement the World Population Plan of Action and to advance United States security and overseas interests after approving the plan. Population control policies were adopted to protect American economic and military interests, with the memorandum arguing that population growth in developing countries resulted with such nations gaining global political power, that more citizens posed a risk to accessing foreign natural resources, and that American businesses were vulnerable to governments seeking to fund a growing population According to internal White House and Commission documents posted in February 2016 by the National Security Archive at The George Washington University, the Gerald Ford White House significantly altered the final report of the supposedly independent 1975 Rockefeller Commission investigating CIA domestic activities over the objections of senior Commission staff.The entire 86-page section on CIA assassination plots was removed and numerous edits were made to the report by then-deputy White House Chief of Staff Richard Cheney. There are international disputes in the Middle East and eastern Mediterranean. The Turkish invasion of Cyprus in July 1974 caused extreme strain within the NATO alliance. The Senate and House of Representatives voted to stop military aid to Turkey after Greece withdrew from the NATO military structure. The bill was vetoed by Ford because he was concerned about the effect of this on Turkish-American relations and the security of NATO's eastern front. Congress passed a second bill, which Ford vetoed, but a compromise was accepted to continue aid until the end of the year. Turkish relations were disrupted until 1978.Although the initial cease fire had been implemented to end the conflict, Kissinger's shuttle diplomacy was showing little progress. Ford wrote that the Israeli tactics frustrated the Egyptians and made him angry. During Kissinger's trip to Israel in March 1975, a last minute reversal to consider further withdrawal prompted a cable from Ford to Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. "Reassessment" meant canceling or suspending aid to Israel. Between March and September 1975, the United States refused to conclude any new arms agreements with Israel. Rabin notes that the term heralded one of the worst periods in American-Israeli relations. The American Jewish community and Israel's well-wishers in Congress were upset by the announcement.On May 21, <mask> "experienced a real shock" when seventy-six U.S. senators wrote him a letter urging him to be "responsive" to Israel's request for $2.59 billion (equivalent to $ billion in ) in military and economic aid. Ford thought the chance for peace was in danger. The September 1974 ban on arms sales to Turkey was the second major congressional intrusion upon the President's foreign policy prerogatives. Ford described the summer months as an American-Israeli "war of nerves" or "test of

The Paris Peace Accords ended American offensive operations against North Vietnam.The release of American prisoners of war was required by the accords. The agreement guaranteed the territorial integrity of Vietnam and called for elections in the North and South. The total withdrawal of U.S. forces was stipulated in the Paris Peace Accords. Henry Kissinger and L c Th negotiated the agreements. The proposed agreement was criticized by the President of South Vietnam. Nixon and Kissinger were forced to pressure Thieu to sign the agreement to allow the withdrawal of American forces. In multiple letters to the South Vietnamese president, Nixon promised that the United States would defend Thieu's government should the North Vietnamese violate the accords.The province of Phuoc Long was invaded by the North Vietnamese in December 1974. General Trn Vn Tr wanted to gauge the response of South Vietnam and the US before embarking on the invasion. As North Vietnamese forces advanced, Ford requested Congress approve a $722 million aid package for South Vietnam, funds that had been promised by the Nixon administration. Congress voted against the proposal by a wide margin. Large sums for evacuation, but not one nickel for military aid was offered by Senator Jacob K. Javits. On April 21, 1975, President Thieu publicly blamed the United States for the fall of his country. <mask> gave a speech at the university two days later.He said that the Vietnam War was over as far as America was concerned. The announcement was well received. 1,373 U.S. citizens and 5,595 Vietnamese and third-country nationals were evacuated from the South Vietnamese capital of Saigon. The evacuees were taken to the U.S. Navy ships off-shore by military and Air America choppers. Some of the evacuees were pushed off the vessels that were taking them to make room for more people. Other helicopters were forced to crash land into the sea after dropping off their passengers, close to the ships, their pilots bailing out at the last moment to be picked up by rescue boats. Many of the evacuees from Vietnam were allowed to enter the United States.The costs of assisting the settlement of refugees were appropriated by the Act. 130,000 Vietnamese refugees came to the United States in 1975. In the years that followed, thousands more escaped. The former Portuguese colony of East Timor became independent in 1975. Suharto was a strong ally of the U.S. During a meeting with Ford and Kissinger in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta in 1975, Suharto discussed the plans to invade East Timor. Ford and Kissinger made it clear that the U.S. wouldn't object to the Indonesian annexation.The deaths of nearly a quarter of the Timorese population from 1975 to 1981 were caused by the invasion and occupation. The Ford administration worried about the loss of U.S. influence in Asia after Mayaguez and Panmunjom North Vietnam's victory over the South. The administration proved it was willing to respond forcefully to challenges to its interests in the region on two occasions, once when Khmer Rouge forces seized an American ship in international waters and again when American military officers were killed in the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea. The Mayaguez incident was the first crisis. The Mayaguez, an American merchant ship, was seized by Cambodians after the fall of Saigon. The Marines landing on the wrong island met stiff resistance from the Mayaguez sailors who were being released. 41 U.S. servicemen were killed and 50 were wounded when two military transport helicopters carrying the Marines for the assault operation were shot down.Despite the American losses, the operation was seen as a success in the United States, and Ford enjoyed an 11-point boost in his approval ratings. The names of the Americans killed in the operation were engraved on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial wall in Washington, D.C. According to some historians, the Ford administration felt the need to respond to the incident because it was seen as a Soviet plot. According to an analysis of the administration's internal discussions, Ford's national security team understood that the seizure of the vessel was a local, and perhaps even accidental, provocation by the Cambodian government. They needed to respond forcefully to discourage further provocations by other Communist countries in Asia. The village of Panmunjom is located between the two Koreas and was the site of the axe murder incident. North Korea had been trying to get the U.S. to withdraw from South Korea.In August 1976, two U.S. officers were killed and two South Korean guards were injured while trimming a tree in Panmunjom's Joint Security Area. Kim Jong-il, the son of North Korean leader Kim Il-sung, presented the incident as an example of American aggression, helping to secure the passage of a motion calling for a U. The North would see the U.S. as a paper tiger if they did not respond, according to Kissinger and Ford. The Ford administration decided that it was necessary to respond with a big show of force. At the same time the air force was deployed, a large number of ground forces went to cut down the tree. After allowing the tree-cutting to go ahead, the North Korean government issued an official apology. Ford was the target of two assassination attempts.On September 5, 1975, a follower of Charles Manson, named "Squeaky" Fromme, pulled a gun at <mask> and killed him. Fromme was taken into custody after Larry Buendorf, a Secret Service agent, grabbed the gun. She was paroled on August 14, 2009, after serving 34 years for attempting to assassinate the President. The Secret Service began keeping Ford at a more secure distance from anonymous crowds, a strategy that may have saved his life seventeen days later. Sara Jane Moore, standing in a crowd of onlookers across the street, fired a.38-caliber revolver at him as he left the St. Francis Hotel in downtown San Francisco. Ford missed the shot by a few feet. Before she fired a second round, retired Marine Oliver Sipple grabbed at the gun and diverted her shot, which hit a wall about six inches above and to the right of Ford's head, wounding a taxi driver.Moore was sentenced to life in prison. She was paroled on December 31, 2007. John Paul Stevens was appointed Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States by Ford in 1975. President Nixon appointed Stevens to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. <mask> was the House Republican leader when he tried to have Douglas impeached. Stevens disappointed some conservatives by siding with the Court's liberal wing regarding the outcome of many key issues after being confirmed. Ford praised Stevens."He has served his nation well, with dignity, intellect and without partisan political concerns," <mask> said of Stevens. <mask> made appointments to the United States Courts of Appeals and the United States district courts. <mask> reluctantly agreed to run for president in 1976, but first he had to fight for the Republican nomination. Ronald Reagan and the party's conservative wing faulted Ford for failing to do more in South Vietnam and for negotiating to cede the Panama Canal. Under President Carter, the negotiations for the canal continued. Reagan withdrew from the race at the Republican Convention in Kansas City, Missouri, after he failed to get a majority of delegates. The more liberal Vice President Nelson Rockefeller was dropped by Ford in favor of the U.S.Bob Dole is from Kansas. <mask> had to counter a lot of negative media imagery, including the pardon dispute and anti-Republican sentiment. <mask> had been seen stumbling on two occasions during his term, and Chevy Chase mimicked him on Saturday Night Live. Chase said, "He mentioned in his own autobiography that it had an effect over a period of time that affected the election to some degree." The 1976 election campaign of <mask> was aided by his being an incumbent president during several anniversary events. The President presided over the fireworks display in Washington, D.C. On July 7, 1976, the President and First Lady hosted a state dinner for Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip of the United Kingdom, which was broadcasted on the Public Broadcasting Service network.The 200th anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts gave <mask> the opportunity to deliver a speech to 110,000 in Concord acknowledging the need for a strong national defense and a plea for "reconciliation, not recrimination" and "reconstruction, not rancor" <mask> argued for a return to basic American virtues while speaking in New Hampshire on the previous day. The 1960 election saw the first televised presidential debates. <mask> was the first incumbent president to participate in one. Jimmy Carter attributed his victory in the election to the debates, saying they gave the viewers reason to think that he had something to offer. <mask> made a mistake in the second debate when he said there was no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe. <mask> doesn't believe that the Poles consider themselves dominated by the Soviet Union.<mask> said in an interview that he intended to imply that the Soviets wouldn't crush the spirits of eastern Europeans seeking independence. The response was so awkward that the questioner was not sure what to think. Carter won the election with 50.1% of the popular vote and 297 electoral votes, compared with 48.0% and 240 electoral votes for Ford. The Nixon pardon controversy ended after he left office. Jimmy Carter opened his 1977 inaugural address by thanking Ford for all he had done to heal the land. The Fords moved to Colorado after they left the White House. Ford's children received an income from investing in oil with Marvin Davis.He made appearances at events of historical and ceremonial significance, such as presidential inaugurals and memorial services. He served as the chairman of the board of trustees from 1980 to 1986 after becoming the president of Eisenhower Fellowships in Philadelphia in 1977. He reluctantly agreed to be interviewed by James M. Naughton, a New York Times journalist who was given the assignment to write the former President's obituary. Ford's book, A Time to Heal, was published in 1979. Serene was described as like the author in a Foreign Affairs review. There are no surprises, no deep probings of motives or events, but this is the most honest of recent presidential memoirs. No more here than meets the eye.<mask> was invited to lunch at the White House whenever he was in Washington, D.C., and received monthly briefs from Carter's senior staff on international and domestic issues. Carter and his wife visited the Fords' home a lot before Ford's death. <mask> and Carter were co-chairs of the National Commission on Federal Election Reform in 2001 and the Continuity of Government Commission in 2002. <mask> was one of the co-chairs of the Council forExcellence in Government, a group dedicated to excellence in government performance, which provides leadership training to top federal employees.

Ford Library and the Gerald R. Ford Museum. <mask> considered running for the Republican nomination in 1980, but didn't serve on corporate boards to keep his options open for a second term. Carter's foreign policy in the Middle East and Africa was attacked by Ford. <mask> wanted to win a term in his own right, as well as exorcise his "Accidental President" image. Ronald Reagan would not be able to defeat Carter and would hand the incumbent a second term, according to Ford. <mask> was encouraged by his former Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger as well as Jim Rhodes of Ohio and Bill Clements of Texas to make the race.On March 15, 1980, <mask> said he wouldn't run for the Republican nomination and would support the eventual nominee. After securing the Republican nomination in 1980, Ronald Reagan considered his former rival <mask> as a potential vice-presidential running mate, but negotiations between the Reagan and Ford camps at the Republican National Convention were unsuccessful. <mask> gave the power to control key executive branch appointments, such as Kissinger as Secretary of State and Greenspan as Treasury Secretary, after he conditioned his acceptance on Reagan's agreement to an unprecedented "co-presidency". Reagan offered the vice-presidential nomination to George H. W. Bush. In a campaign commercial for the Reagan-Bush ticket, <mask> stated that the country would be better served by a Reagan presidency rather than a continuation of the policies of Jimmy Carter. On October 8, 1980, <mask> said former President Nixon's involvement in the general election could negatively impact the Reagan campaign. It would have been better for Ronald Reagan.<mask> accused Carter of ineffectiveness on the part of the Federal Reserve Board due to his appointing of most of its members. The latest action by the president is cowardice. Following the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan, <mask> told reporters that criminals who use firearms should get the death penalty. <mask> advised Reagan against succumbing to Wall Street demands and follow his own agenda for the economic policies of the US during an appearance on Good Morning America. They are wrong. <mask> stated during a news conference in 1981 that stopping the Reagan administration's Saudi arms package could have a negative impact on American relations in the Middle East.

texts: <mask> is a Brazilian visual artist. Baltar works in a variety of media. She wants to capture the ephemeral in her artwork. <mask> was born in 1959 and still lives and works in Brazil. She began her career working with primordial elements, such as the material she took from her own house in the neighborhood of Botafogo. Baltar's work was shown in institutions throughout Brazil, the United States, Japan, and Argentina. She took part in important group shows, such as The Peripatetic School - Itinerant Drawing From Latin America, which premiere at the Drawing Room in London, and then toured to several other venues.The I Biennial of the Americas, Denver (USA), 25a Bienal Internacional de So Paolo, V Bienal de la Habana, and 12a Bienal do Mercosul are some of the important Biennials she participated in. Her work can be found in important public collections such as the Blumenthal Collection, MIMA Museum, and Coleccon Copel. Baltar's artistic career began in the 1990s. Dusts from the clay bricks of her house were mixed with drops of rain in the openings of her roof. In 2005, Brgida Baltar had to leave her house. The artist lived and worked near the old brick building for fifteen years. She carved the form of her body into the wall of the house in Abrigo.She used the red bricks from that house to make future drawings and sculptures. Baltar strives to return to a pre-industrial, childlike and primitive narration. Baltar photographically captures herself in the Sisyphean task of trying to capture mist in her work Collecting Mist. Baltar's work has been exhibited at a number of places, including the Embassy of Brazil in London, the Drawing Room in London, and the Spencer Brownstone Gallery in New York. Her works are influenced by the work of two Brazilian artists. Baltar wanted to criticize the contemporary world of productivity surplus, which allows little room for daydreaming, for contemplation, etc. The National Museum of Women in the Arts is in Washington.O Fio da Trama, El Museu del Barrio, Nova York is an art museum.

Only the fourth female member of the governing body of the ICRC helped to pave the way towards gender equality in the organisation which has historically been a pioneer of international humanitarian law. During the Second World War, she became an outspoken advocate inside the ICRC leadership to publicly condemn Nazi Germany's system of concentration camps. She was appointed as the first female vice-president of the ICRC after she resigned as a member. The center of Protestantism in the 16th century was the location of Pont-en-Royans, a family of Huguenots. The Edict of Nantes, which had restored civil rights to the Huguenots, was revoked by Louis XIV in 1685, leading to the exodus of 20,000 Protestants.He began working as a merchant after acquiring the citizenship of the Republic of Geneva in 1714. His nephew douard <mask> was elected a member of the Council of States and the National Council. Albert Octave <mask> was a civil engineer who worked first at the Western Switzerland railways and then at the Palais des Congrs. A number of bridges linking the le de Genve and the le Rousseau in the middle of the Rhone are still landmarks today. His grandfather was a trader and judge at the commercial court in Marseille, where his mother came from. Albert and Camille had seven children. She was part of the patrician class which turned to banking and philanthropic activities at the end of the 19th century after losing control of the major public offices.Several members of the family became medical doctors and nurses. She obtained her nursing degree from the School of the Samaritans after graduating from the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. After the outbreak of the First World War in July 1914, the nurse in the military hospital Grand was recommended to work by the orthopedist Alfred Machard. The auxiliary hospitals in the town provided care to both the French and the U.S. Army. Since thousands of Swiss volunteers had joined the French army in 1914, she went back to treat those who had returned with war injuries. She tended to prisoners of war, who were either seriously ill or wounded, when they were in Switzerland. The care for refugees was one of the tasks she took up.She dedicated herself to the care of the victims of the Spanish Flu. Between the World Wars, <mask> was assigned to lead the social hygiene dispensary of the Red Cross section. Sex education and the regulation of prostitution were intended to stop the spread of sexually transmissible diseases. Child welfare was done for the poor groups of the population. She was the leader of the visiting nurses service. She followed in the footsteps of her uncle by joining the ICRC. During the first phase of the Chinese Civil War, he was a personal friend of Gustave Ador, who was the president of the ICRC.The International Council of Nurses was founded in 1899 as the first international organization for health care professionals and is based in Montreal. In 1930, <mask> was elected as a member of the ICRC. She was one of four women who were part of the governing body. The 15th international conference of the Red Cross Movement was held in Tokyo in October 1934, where the draft text of a convention was presented by Marguerite van Berchem. The British and French governments objected to the idea of a diplomatic conference being organised by the ICRC. The Florence Nightingale Foundation was founded in 1934 to provide post-graduate education to nurses in commemoration of Florence Nightingale, the English social reformer and founder of modern nursing. The only woman involved in the Ethiopia operations of the ICRC was <mask>.When it received information in April 1936 from the delegate and medical doctor about the use of Italian chemical weapons in Korem, <mask> was part of the group that pushed to denounce the chemical warfare publicly. She made preprations to do so, but the legalist group of ICRC President Max Huber prevailed and only a polite letter was sent to the Italian Red Cross. The exiled Austrian Princess Nora von Starhemberg, who was a Jewish actress and married to the former Vice-Chancellor of Austria, received <mask> a few days after the annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany. President Huber stopped all efforts by Suzanne and <mask> to get information about the disappeared from the German Red Cross. During the Spanish Civil War, <mask> directed all the relief actions which the ICRC undertook, working closely with Renée Bordier, who was also a nurse hailing from a prominent family of bankers. At the 16th International Red Cross Conference in London, the two rival Spanish Red Cross Societies participated. The relief bureau and relief division were established at the beginning of the Second World War.They risked their lives in the middle of the Battle of Britain. They went to British camps for POWs and civilians. She reported that the British authorities lost their confidence in the effective application of the convention by their adversaries. She was able to convince them to lift the blockade on the POWs in Germany. The Foreign Office, the German Red Cross, and the High Command of the Wehrmacht were all discussed in Berlin in December 1940 by Martin Bodmer and <mask>, who were both members of the ICRC. Private business in the arms industry was done by the leader of the latter. Her colleagues appreciated her humanitarian spirit, devotion, common sense, courage and tenacity.She was a rather challenging member because of these qualities. She was considered to be 'unintelligent and dangerously obstinate in delicate affairs' by Carl Jacob Burckhardt. Odier questioned several times a line of action which did not seem right to her, especially when legal considerations were more important than humanitarian concerns. The ICRC leadership received more information about the Final Solution, the systematic slaughter of Jews by Nazi Germany in Eastern Europe, by autumn of that year. A large majority of the ICRC's about two dozen members at its general assembly on 14 October 1942 were in favor of a public protest. Burckhardt, who went on to become the ICRC president in 1944, and Switzerland's President Philipp Etter firmly denied that request. Each member of the Committee was affected by this silence.When the executive committee established a department for special assistance to civilian prisoners, she was left out. The situation of civilians in the Middle East and Africa was assessed by the two men. Their tour lasted three months and included stops in Istanbul, Ankara, Cairo, Jerusalem, Beirut, and Salisbury. One of the first large-scale air raids by the allied forces took place in Berlin. The International Committee of the Red Cross won the second Nobel Peace Prize after 1917. During World War I, it was the only recipient. While the leadership of the ICRC was criticized for not publicly condemning Nazi Germany, <mask> made her own contribution to what the committee credited the ICRC with, i.e., the great work it has performed during the war on behalf of humanity.When thousands of former POWs and civilians, who had been taken to Germany as slave labourers, were caught in a sudden cold spell at the Brenner Pass, <mask> organised a convoy with medical help for them. She continued to focus on issues concerning the recruitment and training of nurses and of voluntary nursing auxiliaries as well as on medical equipment, editing a number of publications in several languages. She kept asking about the rehabilitation of disabled people. The 17th International Conference of the ICRC was held in August 1948. She attended the Eighteenth International Red Cross Conference in Toronto in July and August of 1952. She contributed to strengthen the ICRC's links with nursing associations which looked upon her as a model and a guide. She resigned from the ICRC for age reasons.She was elected as a vice-president of the ICRC. The only organisation to be honoured three times was the ICRC. It is possible that <mask> contributed to this award as well. The mansion of the Bern deaconesses in Presinge is located in the rural northeastern part of the canton of Geneva. The Journal de Genve called her the "grande dame" of the ICRC when she died. The International Review of the Red Cross wrote in its obituary that all who had the privilege of knowing and working with this great lady praised her dedication, perseverance, enthusiasm, unaffected manner and courage, and remember her with affection and gratitude. Other former ICRC colleagues like Gustave Ador and Gautier-van Berchem are also buried in Cologny.Her gravestone has a verse from 1 John :CELUI QUI AIME SON, "Whoever loves his brother remains in the light"

texts: He was a combat veteran of both World War II and the Korean War. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Korean War. He was a member of the Lake Traverse Reservation, a tribe of Dakota people. On March 3, 2008, after a long campaign by his family and the congressional delegations of both North and South Dakota, President George W.

In World War II, he was a member of I Company of the famed North Dakota 164th Infantry Regiment. After initial training in Louisiana, the regiment carried out various orders in several West Coast locations before being deployed to Australia in preparation for operations in the Pacific Theater. The Americal Division was assigned to the United States Army. The First Marine Division, which had suffered heavy losses while clearing the South Pacific island of Japanese, was helped by the 164th Infantry. Although the new boys were green, the exhausted men welcomed the North Dakotans with open arms. The first offensive operation against the enemy in any theater was conducted by the Dakotans.Because of transport constraints, the Americal Division arrived on Guadalcanal piecemeal, and was fed into combat alongside the battle-hardened Marines. In contrast to the way several U.S. Army divisions were deployed in the Pacific War, the soldiers of the 164th Infantry were able to learn the practical art of jungle warfare against the Japanese without suffering as many casualties as might otherwise have occurred. Guadalcanal was one of the most brutal battles of the war. The Banzai charge was adopted by the Japanese troops. The battles would last all night. <mask>'s reputation for bravery and skill grew as a result of these battles. He was an expert with the Browning Automatic Rifle.His great weapon was his throwing arm, which he used to hurl hand grenades. The safest place to be was next to <mask> according to James Fenelon, who fought with him on Guadalcanal. Despite its ad hoc formation, the Americal Division fought well at Guadalcanal, the 164th Infantry taking on a key role in the defeat of a major Japanese offensive in October 1942. In support of the Marines, the Dakotans received a Navy Presidential Unit Citation. The combat campaigns on the islands of Bougainville, Leyte, and Cebu took place after the battles on Guadalcanal. The Americal Division took part in the occupation of the Yokohama region after the Japanese surrender. After more than five years of active duty, he was discharged from the Army.He spent most of the time overseas. After the war, he worked at the school. He married Nettie Owen-Robertson on November 14, 1947. Before I experienced the horror of that attack, I was quick to call cowardice or yellow people who were afraid. Nevermore. I don't know what they are, but they are true to one. I am not a psychologist, nor a statistician, and less of a philosopher; but the depth of emotion, the dreads of fear, the referees of horrors, and the concentration of self that led me to make this observation, the fear impulse, or perhaps, better said, the (Fear is a state of drunkenness according to him. He loses all reason, sense of values, and is not liable, or at least should not be held accountable, when he is in that state. During the 13 months of combat in which I have participated, there were moments and rare ones, I am sure, but they lose none of their terror or horror for which fear laid a relentless and powerful hold on me. When terror was so strong in me, I could feel idiocy replace reason. I have never left my position or shirked hazardous duty. Fear didn't make me cowardice. On January 16, 1951, the 164th Infantry Regiment was activated and trained in Alabama.Lieutenant Holly decided to have his men draw straws after selecting several sergeants for deployment to the front lines. He volunteered instead. Someone has to teach these kids how to fight. He was assigned to George Company, 2nd Battalion, 19th Infantry Regiment. His combat experience and genuine gift of leadership brought him a quick series of promotions to the level of master sergeant, leading the 1st Platoon. Both sides were killed in the summer and fall of 1951. On October 13, 1951, the 24th Division was called upon to protect a Chinese supply depot in the town of Kumsong in the central area of the Korean peninsula.This push was to be the last major United Nations offensive of the war. He was a ferocious warrior in battle, as evidenced by his heroic actions over the next six days. According to official records, he was wounded on October 15 and again on October 17 and 20. He received a Silver Star for bravery on October 18. 57 years later, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his heroism on October 20. George Company was fighting all day. The last major Chinese stronghold between the UN forces and Kumsong was on Hill 675–770.On the 19th, doctors were able to remove 83 pieces of splinters from a concussion grenade that had hit him the previous day, as well as two rifle gunshot wounds to his left arm. Medic Dale Selby told Keeble to stay back because of his wounds, but he refused to let his men go up the mountain without him. The Chinese held the hill throughout the day and were attacked by all three platoons. The company suffered heavy casualties after all three charges were repulsed. The trenches were filled with enemy soldiers, and fortified with three pillboxes containing machine guns. The enemy suffered casualties in the open trenches after the third assault. The pillboxes continued to fire at George Company.After withdrawing the 3rd platoon, he decided to attempt a solo assault. He once told a relative that he was either going to kill them or take them out. The left pillbox was flanked by grenades and rifle fire as he crawled to an area 50 yards from the ridgeline. After returning to the point where 1st Platoon held the company's first line of defense, he took out the right pillbox with grenades and went to the opposite side of the ridgeline. He threw a grenade into the back entrance of the middle pillbox and with additional rifle fire eliminated it. The enemy directed its entire arsenal at Keeble during his assault, according to the stepson. It looked like a flock of blackbirds when he said there were so many grenades coming down on <mask>.Even under heavy enemy fire, he was able to complete his objective. After he killed the machine gunners, he ordered his men to advance and secure the hill. Master Sergeant Keeble single-handedly destroyed three enemy machine-gun bunkers and killed seven enemy soldiers in nearby trenches on that day. His bravery in the face of enemy fire was so remarkable that a recommendation that he receive the Medal of Honor was twice submitted. The recommendation was lost in both cases. When the men tried to submit the recommendation a third time, they were told they couldn't because of regulations. He received theDistinguished Service Cross on December 20, 1952.The Medal of Honor was upgraded to the DSC in 2008. After he was wounded, he was removed from front line duty and discharged on August 26, 1952. After the Korean War, <mask> returned to North Dakota. He was working at the school. He was diagnosed with Tuberculosis and had to be treated in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He had one of his lungs removed. He was unable to work for the rest of his life because of a series of strokes.Nettie, his wife of 14 years, died in the year after. The man is said to have pawned his service medals. He persevered despite his disabilities. He was married to the first woman to complete a doctorate of education. The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 4324 is located in North Dakota. The man is buried in Sisseton, South Dakota. His tombstone was replaced with a medal of honor.The family and friends of the man who was twice recommended for the Medal of Honor remained dedicated to his cause. United States Senators Kent Conrad, John Thune, and Tim Johnson all advocated for the posthumous award of the Medal of Honor. Senator Conrad and North Dakota Adjutant General Michael Haugen presented the family with a duplicate set of military medals on May 30, 2006 at the Wahpeton Armory. The Secretary of the Army, Francis Harvey, recommended that the medal be upgraded to the Medal of Honor moments before the event was to begin. The case moved up to the Secretary of Defense. Donald Rumsfeld told the four Dakota senators that a statute of limitations would prevent the Medal of Honor from being granted. Legislation was drafted by the four Dakota senators to remove the last barrier to posthumous awarding of the medal.The congressional funding bill for Iraq included language to waive the statute of limitations for the award of a medal of honor. The President could sign off on the recommendation if the Secretary of Defense made a recommendation for the upgrade of Keeble's DSC. The legislation was signed by President Bush. Senator Thune issued a statement on June 2, 2007, in which he said that Master Sergeant <mask>. Keeble served with bravery and dignity, going beyond the call of duty not for recognition but for the mission he believed in and the country he loved. His legacy is a source of pride for his family and all Americans. The Secretary of the Army's recommendation is wonderful news. I began working with the master sergeant's family and tribal officials in the spring of 2002 to make sure that he gets the final honor he deserves.The Secretary of Defense was urged to act quickly by Senator Johnson. In a letter to Gates, Johnson said he hoped the two of them could move forward with the case as quickly as possible. It would be another year before the President would award the medal. She died suddenly on June 3, 2007, despite being determined to live long enough to accept the Medal of Honor on her husband's behalf. The White House announced in February 2008 that the Medal of Honor would be awarded posthumously in a ceremony on March 3. "We are proud to be a part of this for <mask>," Russell said in a U.S. Army announcement. He is deserving of this for what he did in the military.The Sisseton-Wahpeton tribe and North and South Dakota are both affected by this victory. <mask> is receiving this honor and we are very proud of him. He embodied our cultural values of humility, compassion, bravery, strength and honor. The embodiment of woyuonihan, or honor, was always carrying himself in a way so that those who knew him would be proud of him. He lived a life full of honor and respect. All of the people who knew Keeble had the same feelings for him. I would tell him that he is everything a man should be, and that he is brave, kind and generous.I would tell him how proud I am of him, and how I never realized that I was living with such greatness. The President of the United States of America has awarded in the name of Congress the Medal of Honor. The support platoon in Company G, 19th Infantry was attacked on Hill 765, a steep and rugged position that was well defended by the enemy. The attacking elements were pinned down on the slope by heavy enemy fire from three well-fortified and strategically placed enemy positions. Master Sergeant Keeble ignored his personal safety and joined the pinned-down platoon. Master Sergeant Keeble crawled forward alone until he was in close proximity to one of the machine-gun emplacements. Master Sergeant Keeble ignored the heavy fire that the crew trained on him and threw a grenade that destroyed the position.He moved to the second enemy position and used a grenade to destroy it. He moved forward against the third emplacement despite the fact that the enemy troops were trying to stop his advance with a shower of grenades. Master Sergeant Keeble continued to direct accurate fire against nearby trenches, causing heavy casualties to the enemy. Company G was inspired by his courage and moved forward. The courage, service, and devotion to duty displayed by Master Sergeant Keeble was an inspiration to all around him and reflected great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army.
